Is Minimize spread across the metagame, or concentrated on a few Pokémon?

Concentrated: Overqwil alone carries 73.20% of the 153 teams running Minimize, and its top three species together account for 96.08%.

How reliable is Minimize's win rate?

The 43.11% figure is a posterior mean, not a raw average; the interval behind it is 41.51%–44.71%, from 1,094 games. That is a wide band, which means the true rate could sit anywhere in it. Treat the point figure as a rough read, not a precise one.

Where do these numbers come from?

Tournament decklists and real match records for Pokémon Champions, ingested from Limitless, Victory Road and the official circuit. These figures are all-time over the whole corpus, not scoped to a format or window the way the boards above the search bar are. Win rates are shrunk toward the field average rather than printed raw, so a thin sample cannot top a board.
